Let me start from the beginning. Got my 16G iPhone 3G with the 2.2.1 software.

All I wanted was to unlock it so I got the TurboSim installed, my phone was working perfectly after that. No problems whatsoever.

I upgraded my phone to the 3.0 software

Went and got it unlocked again. Not sure exactly what the person did but it took him a while to do it. About 2 hours

Ever since then, my battery life has gone down way faster than what it used to. It lasts less than 8 hours even after an overnight charge. And it gets really hot!

I had quite a few apps on there, I took them all off and it helped a little.

The guy who unlocked it, I think jailbroke it. I noticed I have new apps

BossPrefs

Cydia and ICY

Have no idea what they are, I don't want to design my phone. I just wanted it unlocked to use with T-mobile. Is that possible? Do you have to jailbreak to unlock for 3.0?

What is causing the battery death? I've been on different forums and I am really confused. Is it the upgrade to 3.0 or the unlocking/jailbreaking? Can I use a different TurboSim?

Plus I also want all my apps back on my phone.

I keep seeing "oh you need to turn off your wifi, edge, 3g, that still doesn't help.

Someone please help me solve this!!!!

I forgot to mention that also ever since the unlocking or whatever for the 3.0 my phone is not as fast as it was. especially when I go to check my texts. I am really annoyed. Please help!!!
